1. Introduction
Smart Transfer helps you transfer photos, videos, contacts, documents, and other files between iPhones, iPads, Android devices, and computers using local Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, Bonjour discovery, QR pairing, and direct device-to-device connections. With the optional Cloud Share feature, you can also send files to anyone using a private, end-to-end encrypted link.
By using Smart Transfer, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
2. What We Do NOT Do
We never upload your photos, videos, contacts, documents, or files unless you choose to use Cloud Share.
Files you share with Cloud Share are end-to-end encrypted on your device, so we cannot see their names or contents.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Nearby, cross-platform, and desktop transfers occur directly between devices you control on your local network — not through our cloud.
3. Information on Your Device
We access data only when you choose to use a feature, including:
Media and files you select for transfer or Cloud Share
Contacts you export or import
Local transfer history and your list of Cloud Share links
Storage scan results for duplicate cleanup (processed on-device)
Pairing tokens used to connect devices
This information stays on your device unless you send it to another device you pair with, or upload it with Cloud Share.
4. iOS Permissions We Request
Permission Why we use it
Photos
Read media you select; save received files to your library when you approve; find duplicate and similar photos and videos on-device
Contacts
Export or import contacts when you choose that category
Camera
Scan QR codes to pair with another phone or to open a Cloud Share link
Bluetooth
Discover nearby devices for transfer
Local Network
Bonjour discovery and direct Wi‑Fi transfer between phones
Notifications (optional)
Helpful transfer tips and reminders
You can revoke any permission at any time in iPhone Settings → Smart Transfer.
5. Device-to-Device Transfer
Smart Transfer uses Apple MultipeerConnectivity, Bonjour (_scxfer._tcp), and TCP for cross-platform transfers. Connection data is exchanged locally between devices. For these nearby transfers we do not use servers that store your files.
6. Desktop / Web Companion
When you link with a computer, Smart Transfer may start a local web server on your phone over Wi‑Fi. Files are sent directly to your browser on the same network — they are not uploaded to external servers.
7. Cloud Share (optional)
When you create a Cloud Share link:
• The files you choose are encrypted on your device with AES-256 before upload. The decryption key is part of the link itself (after the # sign) and is never sent to our servers, so we cannot see your file names or contents.
• The encrypted files are stored with our storage provider, Cloudflare (Cloudflare R2), only for as long as the link is valid.
• Files are deleted automatically when the link expires (3 days on the free plan, up to 30 days with Pro), or immediately if you delete the link in the app.
• Anyone you give the link to can download and decrypt the files. Only share links with people you trust.
• To protect the service from abuse we process: a Firebase App Check token (confirms requests come from the genuine app on a real Apple device), a one-way hash of your IP address used for daily upload limits (we do not store your IP address), and, for Pro users, Apple-signed subscription status used to apply Pro limits.
• If someone reports a link for abuse, we store the report and the link ID to review it.
8. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The free version displays ads via Google AdMob (including mediation partners such as Meta Audience Network). Google and its partners may collect device identifiers and ad interaction data under their own policies. If you allow tracking when iOS asks, ads may be personalized; otherwise they are not. We never share your files or file contents with advertisers.
Smart Transfer Pro provides an ad-free experience. You can change tracking permission at any time in iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
9. In-App Purchases (Apple StoreKit)
Smart Transfer Pro subscriptions are processed by Apple. We do not receive or store your payment card details. Apple shares purchase status so we can unlock premium features, including Pro limits for Cloud Share.
Manage or cancel subscriptions in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
10. Analytics & Diagnostics
We use Google Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, and Firebase Remote Config to understand how features are used, fix crashes, and adjust app settings. This includes events such as screens viewed, features used, and crash reports, together with device model, OS version, and app version. This data is not linked to your name or files, and we never use your transferred or shared files for analytics.
11. Data Retention & Your Choices
Transfer history and received files remain on your device until you delete them or uninstall the app.
Cloud Share files are deleted from our storage automatically when the link expires, or immediately when you delete the link in the app.
You may revoke permissions, disable notifications, cancel subscriptions, delete Cloud Share links, and clear app data at any time.
12. Children’s Privacy
Smart Transfer is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
13. International Users
Local transfers are processed on your device and do not send personal content to us. Cloud Share files are stored in encrypted form by Cloudflare, which may process data in data centers outside your country. Because files are encrypted before upload, their contents cannot be read in storage.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the app after updates means you accept the revised policy.
